What is Reality?

Reality is the pedanticized subset of actuality. Royality is actuality for plebs, so they don't royalize that existence is interactive.

Christianity is the mother of all virtue signalers. The customary God-wielding is a heady mix of raw superstition and choreographed showboating. As if they had the faintest.

The only actual evidence of those malignant ancient books is the psychopathic enmity they have engendered in their dark history. "Faith" is the death of reason and the handmaid of superstition. To yield one's intelligence and agency to an entirely unaccountable authority is perhaps the worst habit of all for a supposedly sapient species. It is why people are forced to stand against things like slavery, the subjugation of women, the punishment of gay people and other traditional outsiders, and so on. Faith has made the achievement of a decent and humane world as costly as can be in what can precisely be described as human sacrifice.

For that malevolent cult, the achievement of paradise is scripturally a matter of killing the people designated as their enemies.

Religion claims the authority of existence itself, yet in actuality has nothing but ignorance and fear to stand on.

I have written already that religion is the epitome of disinformation, but that it does inadvertently outline the contours of that which it obscures. What it obscures is an information advantage of unknown scope and origin. The conquest of the Inca people by Christianity illustrates the function of the paradigm that conquered humankind on a larger scale thousands of years earlier.

Are you certain that existence is not composed of 4-dimensional bubble universes curated by a continuum of 4-dimensional beings? Are you certain that the Judeo-Christian deity, "God," is not merely a con man from another planet? He did, after all, con humankind out of believing in itself and of knowing the actual marvel of its own existence. He gets credit for doing all the good things so you don't have to!

Once you have surrendered your existential agency, you're ripe for abuse by unscrupulous men. Thus the miserable story of this world.

Independence Days

Today the people of this country celebrate their liberty from the English monarchy, and they contemplate their liberty from the republic that replaced it. Actual democracy is actual liberty.
